This is a little night music

A soundtrack for your mind to fill the canvas

Healing the children is foremost.

This is a daytime tune

The sun shines through

And it can be seen.

An afternoon song

Sidewalks and a city bus

Seem to sing “Hey man, you got a dollar?”

The evening piece:

A silent concerto

Played on a broken violin.

The piano player’s got broken hands

The brass section is made of steel.

The morning composition

A subtle yawn, a stir in the blankets

The sun is the conductor.

Midnight comes

And the band begins to play

Right on cue, they know what to do

It’s all in place, exactly how it should be.

So this is a little night music,

Bigger than you think

And it lays you down.
